I think you have nailed the aerial perspective, Ian. Well done! Dartmoor looks a lot like this too. You will find lots of advice on photographing your work on the forum, in the Art Community section. You might be able to fix problems, by tweaking the photograph, once it is in your computer.

Still I have got to get to grips with photographing my work, it never looks the same.
